Kung Fu Baby with 17 Doting Brothers-Chapter 504: Little Aunt

Seeing Gu Yunmu’s wistful expression, Tuanzi cupped his face and soothed him, "You’re brothers, right? Help each other out. Today you work, he rests; tomorrow he works, you rest. Plus, you’re so good at talking, maybe you’re more suited to work with my uncle, don’t you think?"

The system suspected it had misheard.

[Ancient Martial System: When you say ’good at talking,’ are you saying he can drive your uncle up the wall?]

Tuanzi hadn’t answered yet when Gu Yunmu, full of pride and energy, exclaimed, "You’re right! I, being so exceptional, am indeed the best fit to work with him. Once my big brother becomes chairman, then I’ll leave."

The system translated this: Raise Gu Yu’s stress levels to the point of early retirement, allowing Gu Qize to take his place without anyone pressing on him. Gu Qize gets to relax, and Gu Yunmu can enjoy life to the fullest.

This guy sure is a dutiful son!

Whether Tuanzi understood or not was uncertain; yet she actively pushed her chubby face closer, praising sweetly, "Yun Mu, you’re really amazing! You not only manage a company and create tons of fun games but also help my uncle when you have time. How can there be a son as good as you in the world?"

The pink-haired youth burst into arrogant laughter.

"Hahaha!"

The proud laughter rang through the house, making Gu Yu frown, eager to step outside to discipline his son.

He had always been dissatisfied with his eldest son, even though everyone around him considered Gu Qize quite remarkable. He always felt Gu Qize could be even more outstanding, pushing him relentlessly, hoping he’d never slack off even for a moment.

Comparison breeds contentment.

Now, with his younger son working under him, he’s realized just how worry-free his eldest was. His two sons’ work styles are polar opposites. One is meticulous and quick, the other carefree and sluggish.

Yet, despite being carefree, the younger son produces great results, proving he truly has a knack for this work. If only he could change his nature to fit his father’s expectations, that’d be ideal.

Just as he was about to step outside, two brothers called out to him.

"Where are you going? Didn’t you hear Little Huai say Jin is arriving soon? Help out with serving the dishes, will you?"

Gu Yu: "..."

Some people are decisive presidents outside, yet just a clumsy brother in front of their siblings.

In the courtyard.

Gu Yunmu’s triumphant laughter startled the birds in the trees.

The birds flapped away, chirping a few times.

Tuanzi glanced over, trying to translate, "Are they saying, ’You’re so loud,’ ’Look, there’s a nutcase over here,’ ’Run, run, even the birds can’t stand it’?"

Gu Yunmu wasn’t pleased.

"Can’t you shower me with more praise? A little more praise, and I’m full of drive."

Tuanzi gave him a sideways glance and suddenly reached out to tousle his hair, ruffling his pink locks into a mess.

Previously, she rubbed it gently, sparing him――but now she had no mercy. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Unwilling to show weakness, Gu Yunmu, with his long arms, intended to undo Tuanzi’s braid.

"You can’t undo it; Third Brother made this!"

Was it easy for her to coax Third Brother into braiding her hair?

"No worries, I can braid too and even better."

Tuanzi was half-skeptical.

She continued squatting there, letting Gu Yunmu untie her hair, then braid it again.

A minute passed, and there was no movement atop her head; two minutes passed, still no movement.

Tuanzi grinned cheekily, swinging her little paws towards someone’s divine visage.

"Liar! Take this!"

Gu Yunmu tried standing to flee, only to have his legs numb and end up sitting down. Before he could react, darkness fell, shadowing figure pounced, raising little paws high.

"Hey, what are you two doing?"

A melodious female voice emerged.

Just ready to unleash Shadowless Claw, Tuanzi froze and turned her head, only to see a pair of long legs and quickly looked up at the bright woman with short hair and wrinkles at her eyes, resembling Gu Yu remarkably.

The woman wore a sporty outfit, radiating a brisk aura.

Their eyes met, and Gu Jin smiled first.

"You must be Miaomiao. You’re even cuter and smarter than your photos."

Tuanzi felt a bit embarrassed, even sneaking her paws back.

A hand appeared in front of her, looking up, Gu Jin was already bending slightly toward her.

"Get up, it’s time to eat."

Tuanzi quickly slipped her little hand into her aunt’s palm, discovering this petite aunt’s hand was quite calloused.

She stood up holding Gu Jin’s hand, stomping randomly on Gu Yunmu a few times.

"Hello, Aunt."

She looked up shyly and smiled, "You look so pretty!"

Gu Jin couldn’t help but laugh and picked her up.

"You’ll definitely grow up to be a great beauty too."

She headed out with her niece, then suddenly thought of something and looked back swiftly.

"Oh, almost forgot, you are here too, Yunmu."

Gu Yunmu: "..."

Before lunch, Mu Xue specifically told Tuanzi to invite the three senior brothers for a meal.

"Big Brother said they’re not coming over," Tuanzi pouted, "and mentioned that it’s a chance to drink milk tea since Miaomiao isn’t around."

Mu Xue blinked and quickly realized it was an excuse, which only the niece would believe. The three brothers didn’t want to interrupt their family gathering.

She was sure in her niece’s heart, those three brothers were family too.

Mu Xue didn’t insist but prepared a cup of honey lemon water for the milk-tea deprived Tuanzi.

During the meal, besides devouring her food, Tuanzi would occasionally sneak a peek at Gu Jin. Gu Jin was chatting and laughing with the brothers and sisters-in-law, her brows exuding effortless charm.

[Miaomiao: Even though Aunt’s wrinkles are evident, Miaomiao thinks she looks very youthful and happy.]

[Ancient Martial System: Doing what you love, being unbound, naturally makes one youthful and happy.]

Tuanzi seemed deep in thought.

Like when big brother talks about film, he exudes an extraordinary charm. Like when second brother performs on stage, he seems transformed.

So, does Qize like his life just a little bit? There was that one time, Gu Yunmu texted, and Qize smiled at the screen.

After the meal, Gu Jin opened two enormous luggage cases she brought, distributing gifts.

The brothers, sisters-in-law, sons, and nephews all got gifts, but the most went to her niece.

"I wasn’t sure what you liked, so I bought a little bit of everything."

By "a little bit of everything," she meant clothes, shoes, jewelry, and books, among other items.

She even prepared some membership cards for chain restaurants, with some money already loaded in them.

Gazing at the dazzling array of gifts, Tuanzi was wide-eyed and speechless.

"Why does this scene look so familiar?"

Gu Yunmu carried a pink plush doll prepared by Gu Jin, slowly passing by.

"Isn’t this how my brother prepares gifts too?"

Tuanzi suddenly realized.

This gifting style, it really resembles Gu Qize!

[Ancient Martial System: There’s still a difference; Gu Qize sends gifts load by load, while she sends a suitcase full.]
